The Present Moment
Well, how are we doing NOW?
Seems to me the Christmastime Shopping Depression season is one for the books as they say.
Now we have the Shameless arbiters of Grover Norquist’s dictum to hold the line and avow allegiance to the evangelizing bosses— that seem hell- bent— to sink the nation into ever deeper divisiveness.
Was not the brief emotional frenzy of shopping for consumer goods a welcomed distraction from the deadly serious pontificators who would sooner follow their “vows” than actually represent the voting electorate?
All hiker’s must REMEMBER that even when favoring the sore muscle or the tight hamstring that even these favored parts of the body do need attention and will serve much better when time and effort is given to these tight places. Time— making the time to have the time and then given time and effort to elongate and stretch the fascia and underlying webs of muscle tissue always has benefit.
A vow to keep the body/ metabolism at status quo or business as usual is a sure road into inactivity and the aging process can only accelerate. [No benefit]
Similar the do nothing electorate taking Mr. Norquist’s vow as heavenly sent and divined by the born again faithful can only make us all less than the beings that we have been destined to be. [Again- no benefit]
Is this congressional vow valid? Will it stand the test of time?
Well, how are we doing NOW?
